Sessions with armed monitor tasks can now be kept alive longer before the background-task ceiling forces a stop.\n\n- Flag `tengu_giggly_dragonfly`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.257; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Background Tasks\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
